    Mapping the Galactic Disk with the LAMOST and Gaia Red Clump Sample. III. A New Velocity Substructure and Time Stamps of the Galactic Disk Asymmetry in the Disk between 12 and 15 kpc
    We investigate the three-dimensional asymmetrical kinematics and present time stamps of the Milky Way disk between Galactocentric distances of R = 12 and 15 kpc...

    Mapping the Galactic Disk with the LAMOST and Gaia Red Clump Sample. VI. Evidence for the Long-lived Nonsteady Warp of Nongravitational Scenarios
    By combining LAMOST DR4 and Gaia DR2 common red clump stars with age and proper motion, we analyze the amplitude evolution of the stellar warp independently of...

    Mapping the Interstellar Medium with Near-infrared Diffuse Interstellar Bands
    We map the distribution and properties of the Milky Way's interstellar medium as traced by diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) detected in near-infrared stellar...

    Mapping the Milky Way Disk with Gaia DR3: 3D Extended Kinematic Maps and Rotation Curve to ≈30 kpc
    We apply a statistical deconvolution of the parallax errors based on Lucy's inversion method (LIM) to the Gaia DR3 sources to measure their 3D velocity...

    Mapping the stellar age of the Milky Way bulge with the VVV. I. The method
    Context. Recent observational programs are providing a global view of the Milky Way bulge that serves as a template for detailed comparison with models and...
  • Publication
    Mapping the stellar age of the Milky Way bulge with the VVV. II. Deep JKs catalog release based on PSF photometry
    Context. The bulge represents the best compromise between old and massive Galactic components, and as such its study is a valuable opportunity to understand how...

    Mass functions, luminosity functions, and completeness measurements from clustering redshifts
    This paper presents stellar mass functions and i-band luminosity functions for Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies with i 21 using clustering redshifts...

    Mass Models of the Milky Way and Estimation of Its Mass from the Gaia DR3 Data Set
    We use data from the Gaia DR3 data set to estimate the mass of the Milky Way (MW) by analyzing the rotation curve in the range of distances 5 to 28 kpc. We...

    Mass-metallicity relation of dwarf galaxies and its dependency on time: clues from resolved systems and comparison with massive galaxies
    Aims: We present a new approach to study the mass-metallicity relation and its dependency on time. Methods: We used the star formation history (SFH) derived...
